Kathy Kaiser (208)

Hello fellow movie lovers – Kathy Kaiser here…….and welcome to Matinee Chat! Having lived in the St. Louis Metropolitan area my whole life, I absolutely love ALL the theaters here that give me the opportunity to live out my passion – or as my family and friends call it – My obsession – MOVIES!

My home base is on the east side in Belleville IL – but I frequent the fantastic city of St. Louis almost daily – whether catching a sneak preview of the next BLOCKBUSTER at a theater near you, or covering a red carpet event for both commercial and independent films here locally.

A graduate of Lindenwood University with a BA in Communications, my day also includes being the Creative Director & Owner of Kaiser Communication & Marketing Group. My two greatest achievements in life are my two girls – ages 24 and 14 – who have made my life the most incredible journey I could have ever imagined - and who cheer me on each day – as I share my thoughts on the latest new film releases, have chats with my fellow critics one-on-one, and even giving you the opportunity to chat with me too – and how awesome is that……SERIOUSLY!
